NBC News (1/30, Carroll) reports a systematic review involving 10 meta-analyses “on the impact of cannabis on young’s people’s cognition found that many of the known learning and memory difficulties – such as slowed processing speed, and difficulties in focusing – could linger for weeks.” The review revealed that “verbal learning, retention and recall were especially affected for longer periods when the person was no longer high.” The findings were published online in the journal Addiction.
